FANNTASTIC PEOPLE! WONDERFUL JOB!!
We had an emergency situation at a rental property that occurred early on a Saturday morning when I was out of town - hours away. I called Miller's and they had someone onsite at the property...
Amazing company, with amazing employees. Our basement flooded and these guys responded promptly, kept us updated on the progress throughout the process, and communicated thoroughly. We've used them before in the…
Wedged between the River Rouge and the Detroit River, River Rouge sits low and wet, and its early-1900s industrial-era houses were never built to shed the water that now pushes into their basements. Along the Jefferson Avenue corridor and out toward the Zug Island industrial district, aging drain tile and tired sump systems give way during heavy rain and river surge, leaving standing water and saturated block foundations behind — a problem the older, higher-vacancy housing stock is especially prone to.
When flooding hits homes near Belanger Park or the Ecorse border district, the crew that responds is Millers Restoration of Ann Arbor. They extract standing water fast, then set up structural drying to pull moisture out of block walls, floor joists, and subfloors before it works into a longer, costlier problem, documenting every moisture reading for the property owner and the insurer as they go.
A family-owned Wayne County restorer since 1974, Millers handles the full path from emergency water removal through monitored drying and rebuild, so homeowners near the Detroit River shoreline can get a saturated basement back to dry, sound, and usable rather than simply living around the damage.

Air movers and commercial dehumidifiers dry the structure to a verified moisture standard — not just surface-dry.
Emergency pump-out, board-up, and cleanup after river flooding, sump failures, and heavy storms.
We treat to prevent mold, then rebuild what the water ruined, back to pre-loss condition.
Millers responds to water damage throughout River Rouge and Wayne County — including these neighborhoods and areas:
River Rouge is squeezed between the River Rouge and the Detroit River, so properties along the waterfront and the Jefferson Avenue corridor sit close to a high water table with limited drainage. During heavy rain or river high water, that pressure pushes water through foundation walls and floor cracks into older basements. Our crews extract standing water, dry the structure, and address the entry points that keep letting it back in.
Water damage spreads fast, so we respond around the clock and aim to get a crew on site quickly anywhere in River Rouge, including the Zug Island industrial district and the Ecorse border area. The sooner we begin extraction, the more we can limit warping, swelling, and secondary damage to your floors and framing. Call 1-800-645-5377 the moment you find water.
If it is safe, shut off the water source and cut power to the affected area before stepping into standing water, since many homes near Belanger Park have aging electrical systems. Move valuables up off the floor and then call us so we can begin extraction. Try not to run fans on your own before we assess it, because that can spread contamination in river-water flooding.
Coverage depends on your policy and the source of the water, and River Rouge's early-20th-century homes with aging plumbing see a range of causes from burst pipes to groundwater intrusion. We document the damage thoroughly with moisture readings and photos so you have what you need for your claim. We are glad to work directly with your adjuster throughout the process.
